EDITORS COMMENTS
Sporting with Winter-Sports: Bateman Eccentricities. V. Lugeing: "The Achtung-ers" (1912) by the renowned British satirical illustrator, Henry Mayo Bateman, offers a humorous take on the winter sport of lugeing. In this print, Bateman playfully pokes fun at the seriousness and intensity often associated with competitive sports. The scene depicts a group of luge athletes, or "Achtung-ers," as Bateman labels them, perched precariously atop their sledges, each with a determined expression on their faces. The sledges, however, are not the typical sleek and streamlined designs one might expect from modern luge competition. Instead, they are adorned with an assortment of unusual additions, such as skis, bicycle wheels, and even a parasol. Bateman's use of exaggerated proportions and whimsical details adds to the overall sense of amusement. For instance, one athlete's sledge features an oversized steering wheel, while another's is equipped with a set of oars. The athletes themselves are dressed in bulky winter clothing, their faces obscured by goggles and scarves, adding to the sense of absurdity. Despite the comedic elements, Bateman's illustration also captures the thrill and excitement of lugeing. The athletes are shown hurtling down a snowy slope, their sledges cutting through the snow with ease. The background is filled with the vibrant colors of the winter landscape, adding to the visual appeal of the print. Overall, "Sporting with Winter-Sports: Bateman Eccentricities. V. Lugeing: "The Achtung-ers" (1912) is a delightful and humorous take on the winter sport of lugeing. Bateman's clever use of satire and whimsy makes this print a must-have for any collection of sporting art or for those with a fondness for the absurd.
